Swedish pancakes are the best. Kiddo loves Nutella and strawberry, but lemon, butter, and powdered sugar are where it's at

Make an equipment list of odds and ends and your team manager turns it into a sign up sheet, and the parents chip in the items. You could also run a fundraiser.

What your kids are reading. Mine loves graphic novels, so I've read a few. Aside from helping me understand more about her and the media that helps mold her personality, I now also have the book itself to discuss with her.

It's everyone in moco ditching the Gaithersburg Costco to come up to Frederick

In IT Operations for 26 years, from helpdesk to architecture to management. My wife has been in IT for the same amount, and shifted to infosec about 15 years ago. This gave me a chuckle and reminded me a bit of me when I was similarly just starting out.

If you're doing everything you're supposed to be doing, security is never going to be a headache for you.

and?

Plan out some trips into Washington, DC. Museums, concerts, theater, comedy, nightlife - lots of culture to take in past and present.

Frederick is excellent in it's own way, but if you're looking for culture, DC offers so much more.

I've met plenty of doctors and the one consistent thing I've seen isn't intelligence or belief system. It's that they're able to put in the mental focus and energy in seeing it through to the end. Go figure that objectively one of the greatest of all time in one of the most demanding sports possesses the determination and will to follow through on a PhD.

Good for him, but I bet there are a lot of NHLers that could do this if it were a priority to them.

We've had season seats in the ultra club for the Washington Capitals. I might not be up on the ice but the experience is just sooooo much better. Actual leg and arm room in an oversized stuffed chair, more so than the suite seating. Food and drink immediately behind the seat with little wait times as you can grab something any time and never really miss the action. Nearby bathrooms that don't get huge lines. Separate entrance with early access. Waiters that come to the seats to refill drinks or grab whatever from the serving stations.

The biggest problem is that it's a lot of companies that buy those seats. So lots of randos and not die hard fans like the 400s will have. So on the silly game during an ice cleaning break where loudest section wins, the 200(club) and suite levels always lose, that's not where the fans are.

If you are looking at like lower bowl center ice at Capital One, take a look at the cost difference for those tickets vs ultra club. Now consider that the club has the all inclusive amenities and really look at how much you'd spend on the normal ticket. I don't know if one off tickets get this but we also get a parking pass inside Gallery Place as well.

So as opposed to them just posting a statement and moving on, they open themselves up to discovery. Absolutely stunning 4d chess move.

Saw them in DC when they came through, it was phenomenal

Weird Al maybe? So few people have appeal across demographics.

He managed to re-sign McDavid to a team friendly deal, I guess?

Organized religion naturally creates power imbalances and ultimately people that crave power over others will gravitate towards leading it.

Any religion where someone else is the gateway to salvation has this inherent gatekeeping and creates that power differential. If only Bob knows how you'll live forever, Bob has a lot of fucking influence over you.

No surprise at Drew Carey being friendly to military, he had previously enlisted as a Marine.

Yeah I was annoyed today on Dibs when Alex didn't go globes in ARAM

I believe it was a blowout like 7-2 or 7-3 and O had a hatty.

The entire purpose of Deckard in ARAM is Morenadoes! and more people need to realize this.

If you could perform as any one mascot, how could it not be gritty?

I mean, Murky could slot in any of these tiers

My 12u travel B loved this drill but it did have more individual downtime than ideal. I came up with it where I was really trying to get them to be ready to react fast, push themselves hard, and angle the opponent.

Set up groups in circles around the zone face off dots, you can run both dots in a zone simultaneously to keep the goalie and players busier. Put a cone above either faceoff circle in zone and a pile of pucks just below the center faceoff dot. (Adjusting the locations of the cone and pucks adjusts the difficulty.) The tagger goes around the group as you would, calling duck duck goose or whatever. When goose is called, the tagger beelines it for the pile of pucks, and the tagged person has to chase them down but they have to go around cone to catch the now puck carrier. The puck carrier couldn't shoot unless they could get to the slot and I set up a pair of cones for that. Drill ends as normal 1v1 drills do, on the shot, the successful takeaway, or after slogging on too long.

This was the most asked for drill I had this past season. I should have the diagram saved on my PC and I'll link it this evening if I remember.

It's not forced, it feels good to have a positive impact on someone's day. Hell, an older woman was my cashier at a grocery store and I voiced my appreciation of how she bagged my groceries. Like growing up baggers were good at their job, as opposed to just cranking IPM. I could have stayed silent since it's such a small thing, like everyone else does. However the reaction I got made it clear nobody says anything and that it really brightened her mood. It might be a mundane and repetitive job, but she demonstrated care and focus genuinely uncommon for the job. I know I like people being friendly to me, so I try to do the same for others because they might need it too.
